18z with a little heat spell next week. Models continue to take away this weekend rain totals, per usual.

About perfect out there...again. Had a lot of great old fashioned comfortable summer days this year. 81 currently

At least in the Seattle area, the weather's been midsummer perfection these last few days. A good variety of cloudcover and sunshine with light winds and temperatures in the 70s. Today it's the cirrus that's putting on a show. Might snap a pic when I head out in a bit

Those fires aren't going anywhere. This weekend's trough is going to stoke those flames nice and hot, especially Saturday. Not enough of an intrusion to advect moist air into the interior and significantly cool eastern/southern Oregon, but a close enough push to make it pretty windy. Behind the front into next week, dry air filters in from the GOA and Canada, with temps and winds steadily rebounding with time. Great news for me and my campsite, since the wind shift will keep the smoke to the south for a few days, but it'll keep the fires going as well.
